Famous quotes by Lili Taylor:

"I tried to do the commercial thing. But I don't want to keep shoving Twinkies down everyone's throat. People are hungry for something of more substance."

"When it's working, what acting is really about is getting into the essence of a moment in a creative, joyous way - through whatever frees you up."

"I'm realizing that the hard work has really paid off - not hard work acting-wise, but spiritually and principle-wise. That's given me faith enough that my heart hasn't led me astray. I've started to realize that you can do it your way. There are no rules."

"When you get into that kind of studio money, there's a price on everything. And I haven't been willing to pay that price."

"I see my job as an actor to be as good a channel as I can be. Acting is a gift, and I have respect for it."

"I do believe there's good in all of us, even if it's layered over so thickly."

"Cannes is a very strange place. I tried to show up as best I could and to try not to be cynical."

"The weird thing about this business - and I'm sure this operates in many other things, but it's very present and acute in this business - is that a lot of people don't realize that they have power. Particularly actors."

"It's been very important for me to follow my gut or my heart, or whichever organ you want to go by."

"It moves me when anybody is just wandering through life, sleepwalking, and then wakes up. It's like the caterpillar to butterfly thing - the chrysalis. It's just so moving because they're not going to go to their grave with a slipping down life."

"If someone puts up $100 million on a movie, they're gonna be concerned about whether they'll get it back. So they're not gonna make a movie about three girls, you know?"

"We need art. We've been telling stories since the beginning. As human beings, we need it for our survival."

"To do work that's not going to be fulfilling doesn't make sense."

"It's tricky to say 'never,' but I will never have plastic surgery."

"I felt that the biological clock was some myth to keep me from doing what I wanted to do. And so I rebelled against it in the '90s. I thought it was a backlasher, some sort of faulty data. But it's real. I'm glad I woke up before my body was just like 'uh-uh.'"

"Two things I'm trying to work on are openness and flexibility."

"I guess the characters I play may be at the more destructive edge of the spectrum, more damaged or whatever, but I find a lot of female roles uninteresting."

"I love Central Park. I spend a lot of time in there. I try and get in there whenever I can."

"You can rest a lot in an hour or have a whole day and not do it properly. One way I get a quality recharge is to connect with nature. To experience something that's bigger than me."

"There's been a slow death in a way. On the positive side, there are films getting into the Academy Awards that wouldn't have, but on the negative side, financiers are now dominant and making all the decisions. I can't count the ways a director's vision is compromised."
